[DICE]
I'm in that "I don't give a damn about it" mode, say goodbye

to my struggles let em fade while blowing smoke up at the sky
and I tried to be the better man, I really went and tried
but how can I be much better when the problem is in my reflection

I'm guessing that my rage is my protection
for the safety of my mind and all the drama that effects it
these problems are infectious, don't let it be your dope

and get addicted to the drama or inflicted by the smoke
I was only just a youngen, didn't know that I'd be grown
living fatherless, without him, kinda feels like I'm alone

but I gotta be somebody, not this shadow that I've known
ever since the day I've lost him, let me put you in the zone
all I had was pride and music, to this day that's all I got

to the day I go and make it or the coffin where I rot
and I hope it doesn't kill me cause I stress it every second
it's my medicine, infection, and my love that never lessens

it's the zone



[Chorus]
I've been down this road so long
that I'm starting to believe I'm home

this music that I make everyday
gives me hope and it feeds my soul
cause I've been through the struggle and the pain

so I write just to free my soul
and not a damn thing comes between
me and mine when I'm in my zone



[DICE]

I'm in that "now I kinda give a damn about it" .. I got
a thousand problems on my mind, I grab the pen and start to jot
every struggle, every memory, and tears are gonna leak

so if you have the time, spare me just a minute while I speak
you can keep your apple phone, a million dollars gone tomorrow
on a fancy car, I'd give it all away to see my father

but I guess it's for a reason that we lose the ones we're needing
if I didn't than I guess I wouldn't fight to be succeeding for this music
without a loss I never would've started

just a skinny young caucasian kid, I never would've bothered
but I did, and I'm here, and I'm never gonna fade
you can spend your life to hate, but I'ma take it to the grave

cause your mother, father, brother, sister, uncle, and your cousin
can all hate it, hope I fail, but man I'm gonna keep on running
to that goal, and I know that I'm really gonna make it

If I wasn't, than the planet wouldn't spend their time to hate
I'm in the zone



[Chorus]
I've been down this road so long

that I'm starting to believe I'm home
this music that I make everyday
gives me hope and it feeds my soul

cause I've been through the struggle and the pain
so I write just to free my soul
and not a damn thing comes between

me and mine when I'm in my zone



[Jeid]
Give me a second, give me some time
I been in this wreckage for less than I've been alive

but it feels like I've been stuck inside this, rut
for as long as I've been.. walking, talking, and climbing, but
I don't want my time to be up, I don't wanna lose shine in this rough

I'm a diamond trying to stay vibrant but I'm stuck
in this rough and I'm roughed up
waiting for the day that I luck up

$#&@ that I don't got time, rather work till I got mine
take a shot in the dark, but I'm not blind
night vision

I see everything your sight misses, I hear more than y'all might listen
open your mind and your soul might get this
open them eyes and your whole life's different
that's what I learned through these trials and tribulations I'm facing
that's why I know to dream big and never become complacent

that's why I'm so impatient, because I see the bigger
picture, I'm not a quitter, I'm chasing these dollar figures
I rather be over worked than under accomplished and bitter
I just want to finally be a winner so I'm always in the.. zone
